Translated from the original German recipe by Maria Hedwig Stuber. Mortadella is a light pink flat round sausage in the deli section. Variation is provided below. The Italian version is mild-flavored while there is an excellent German mortadella flavored with tiny bits of olives and pistacchios. Ingredients:
300 g mortadella |
300 g leeks, white parts only |
250 g boiled colored twist pasta |
1 red bell pepper |
1 tablespoon sweet mustard |
pepper |
herbs |
2 teaspoons vinegar |
little salt |
sugar |
pepper |
2 teaspoons salad oil |
1/2 cup sour cream or 1/2 cup plain yogurt |
Directions:
1. Cut the sausage into thick slices and further into stripes. 2. Leek is cut into thin rings and plunged in boiling water. 3. Mix all ingredients with the mustard, pepper, and marinade and sprinkle herbs on top. 4. Variation: If you prefer to omit the sour cream, add a little bit more oil. |
